Inmate Money

Each prison has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates a bank-like account for inmate monies and for purchasing things not issued by the facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Friends, family, or other people may deposit money into these Commissary accounts using Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send prisoners money in the mail and have to send those funds to this address and do so in accordance with the rules written below:

The funds have to be a money order that is made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is advisable to use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day hold period, in which the prisoner will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that don’t have valid prisoner info if the envelope has a return address. Cash and checks won’t be deposited so don’t send cash or checks.
